Voodoo doll henrai is a controversial and often misunderstood topic within the realm of Voodoo and spirituality. Voodoo dolls, or poppets, have long been associated with the practice of Voodoo and are believed to be used for various purposes, such as healing, protection, and even harm. However, Voodoo doll henrai is a term that has emerged in recent years and refers to the use of Voodoo dolls for erotic or sexual purposes. This concept combines elements of Voodoo with the hentai genre, which is a form of Japanese animated pornography. It is important to note that Voodoo as a religion does not condone or endorse the use of its sacred objects, such as Voodoo dolls, for inappropriate or demeaning purposes. Voodoo is a complex belief system that focuses on spirituality, healing, and connection to ancestral spirits.
As pancakes were something of a motif in this film I was going to choose that as my dish to make, but I didn't think it was particularly exciting (at least, not the kind of breakfast pancakes they eat in the film) and at the same time, there was another scene I couldn't get out of my head. The sisters and their aunts are drinking and getting merry on tequila and end up dancing around the kitchen singing a song called "Coconut", with a particularly catchy line that goes "put the lime in the coconut". I had to look the song up and discovered it was by a guy called Harry Nilsson in 1972, but that Dannii Minogue also recorded a cover version, which I can't quite imagine! But I found myself humming that line over and over and eventually decided to give up the idea of pancakes and instead make something where I could "put the lime in the coconut".

Voodoo is a complex belief system that focuses on spirituality, healing, and connection to ancestral spirits. The practice of Voodoo is deeply rooted in African traditions and has a rich history and cultural significance. The appropriation of Voodoo dolls for sexual purposes can be seen as disrespectful and offensive to those who practice Voodoo as a legitimate religion.

I'm taking part in Food 'n' Flix, which encourages bloggers to watch the film chosen for that month and cook something inspired by the story, location or characters. This month the film is Practical Magic starring Sandra Bullock and Nicola Kidman; I'd seen it several years ago but decided to watch it again. The film centres around two sisters (Bullock and Kidman) brought up by their aunts (played by Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest), who are all witches. They also live a relatively bohemian lifestyle and are something of outcasts in the community. The sisters also believe there is a family curse - that the men they fall in love with suffer an untimely death. The curse appears to be true when Sally (Sandra Bullock) is widowed at a young age, and she is wary of falling in love again. However, this is a romantic comedy and does of course have a happy ending.
When Sally is a child she makes a wish or casts a spell to protect herself from falling in love (and therefore protect anyone who might love her from dying) and makes a list of qualities her husband must have, that she thinks are too far-fetched to come true - one quality being that he will have one green eye and one blue, and also that he will be able to toss pancakes. When the investigator Gary arrives to look into a mysterious death, Sally realises he does have one green eye one blue. Soon, he seems to be falling for Sally, and there's a moment when the viewer realises he must be 'the one' as he is tossing pancakes with her children.

I found a Delia Smith recipe online for a lime and coconut chicken curry which looked perfect. It's also really easy to make, as it only uses a few ingredients.
Chop two chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Place in a bowl with the zest and juice of a lime. Leave for at least an hour to marinate.
Chop half a red chilli - Delia says to use a green chilli but I only had red.
Stir-fry the chicken, adding the marinade to the pan as well, until the chicken cooked and then add the chilli. Add half a tin of coconut milk and cook for a few minutes over a medium heat.
You're supposed to add spring onions but I didn't have any and my boyfriend doesn't like them anyway. I did add some chopped coriander just before serving.
Serve with rice - and in this case broccoli and beansprouts.

Reader, this is just the first fifteen minutes of the movie! We really get going when Gillian is in trouble, when our heroes find their way back to each other. What follows is an incredible story of sisterhood, strong women, the condemnation of abusive men, the healing powers of love. It’s Thelma & Louise meets the Dixie Chicks’ “Goodbye Earl” plus magic. If that doesn’t do it for you, watch it for the ’90s fashion, for Nicole Kidman singing “A Case of You” in her car at sunrise and becoming demonically possessed by Goran Višnjić.
The misuse and misrepresentation of sacred objects can perpetuate stereotypes and misconceptions about Voodoo and its practitioners. It is crucial to approach any discussion on this topic with respect and sensitivity, recognizing the cultural and spiritual significance of Voodoo and the importance of engaging in responsible and informed conversations. Understanding and appreciating diverse belief systems and cultures is essential for promoting harmony and inclusivity..
Reviews for "Voodoo Dolls and their Connection to Ancestor Worship in Henrai Tradition"
1. Jane - 1 out of 5 stars - I found "Voodoo doll henrai" to be disturbing and offensive. The explicit content depicted in this film was beyond what I expected, and I felt uncomfortable watching it. The storyline was weak and lacked depth, relying heavily on graphic scenes that made me question the purpose of the movie. Overall, I would not recommend this film to anyone who is looking for quality entertainment or a meaningful story.
2. Mark - 2 out of 5 stars - "Voodoo doll henrai" left me feeling disappointed. While the concept of the film had potential, the execution fell short. The acting was subpar, and the dialogue was cringe-worthy at times. As an avid moviegoer, I appreciate films that challenge and engage the audience, but this one failed to do so. The excessive use of violence and explicit scenes felt gratuitous rather than serving a purpose in the narrative. I would advise viewers to approach this film with caution.
3. Sarah - 1 out of 5 stars - I could not get through "Voodoo doll henrai" without feeling disgusted. The blatant objectification of women throughout the film was appalling and left a bad taste in my mouth. The storyline was nonsensical, and the characters were one-dimensional, making it impossible for me to connect or empathize with any of them. Despite its attempt to be provocative, this movie only succeeded in being distasteful. I strongly advise against watching it.
4. Michael - 2 out of 5 stars - "Voodoo doll henrai" was a misguided attempt at creating a provocative and edgy film. While some may argue that it pushes boundaries and challenges societal norms, I found it to be nothing more than shock value disguised as art. The excessive violence and explicit content overshadowed any potential message or artistic merit the film might have had. Overall, I felt that "Voodoo doll henrai" was a tasteless and poorly executed project that left me feeling unsatisfied as a viewer.
5. Emily - 2 out of 5 stars - I can appreciate experimental and controversial cinema, but "Voodoo doll henrai" missed the mark for me. The movie seemed preoccupied with shock value rather than delivering a compelling and engaging narrative. The characters were underdeveloped, and the plotline lacked coherence. Moreover, the excessive use of explicit scenes felt forced and unnecessary, adding no value to the overall viewing experience. I would recommend avoiding this film if you are looking for a thought-provoking and well-crafted movie.
